Destiny 2 developer Bungie could potentially lose its independence under Sony in the event that it falls too far short of meeting its financial targets, a report claims.

]]>There I was, kicking my heels after racing through an absurd amount of content the night of the Destiny 2 Weekly Reset – I’d done some main missions, done the social calls to catch up with each of my vendor pals, and was considering flexing my inner masochist in the Crucible to see out the night. Then, just as I swung my chair around and set my sights on Shaxx, a Reddit post caught my eye… “there’s a new Exotic quest called ‘The Variable’” it said.
]]>Destiny 2: Lightfall servers suddenly went down last night, as players were experiencing huge login queues, connectivity issues, and abrupt booting into orbit. This comes only a day before The Root of Nightmares raid.

I believe the last mission like this was Zero Hour – which was released about four years ago!

]]>With any Destiny 2 expansion there's a huge amount of content to dive into, and Destiny 2: Lightfall is no exception.

And Bungie is drawing on that Legacy for its Lightfall expansion in Destiny 2.
